Glue Gunner is considered to be one of, if not the weakest towers in Bloons TD Battles Mobile, due to a lack of camo-affecting and MOAB-class-affecting capabilities, as well as the upgrades being far too expensive for their effect on bloons. Because of this, it has been drastically buffed, especially the upgrades that involve more popping power. But despite these buffs, there are still no popular loadouts that use the Glue Gunner.

The Glue Gunner in Bloons TD6 has been improved. As an unupgraded tower, its basic glue shots can now soak through 3 layers of bloon instead of just 1, and can be applied to MOAB Class bloons, regardless of upgrades. Upgrading to Glue Soak allows the soaking of all layers, just like the orginal version. Upgrading it to Corrosive Glue or Bloon Liquefier can even damage MOAB-Class, enhancing his use in gameplay capabilities, but it cannot slow them down without the MOAB Glue upgrade.

This (along with the Ice Tower) is arguably the worst starting tower in any game, if no upgrades are bought.

In the BTD5 generation series, The tower is also pretty much worthless past round 46 when the first MOAB shows up. (Round 18 for player sent and 27/23 naturally in Bloons TD Battles Mobile/Bloons TD Battles Flash respectively). This is only true in past BTD games. BTD6 allows the Glue Gunner to hit MOABs.

Most upgrades for Glue Gunner in BTD4 have two containers of glue, but in BTD5 this tower mostly has 1.

Although it doesn't slow down Ceramic Bloons (except in the mobile versions of BTD), it can still damage them after Corrosive Glue has been bought. Bloon Dissolver destroys a whole Ceramic Bloon in less than 10 seconds, while the Bloon Liquefier can destroy a whole Ceramic Bloon in just 1.7 seconds.

It can still glue Ceramic Bloons, even without Corrosive Glue.

Even without Glue Soak, it can still glue Ceramic Bloons before it breaks, even though it has absolutely no effect.

Once the bloon has been glued, it cannot be glued by other glue before it is stripped or the glue wears off. This means that, when using any of the corrosive glue upgrades, it is a good idea to wait until a new tower can be upgraded to the same level as the rest.

Sometimes in BTD4 Corrosive Glue will not pop bloons when Fast Forward is activated.

In the BTD5 Deluxe tech tree, the Glue Hose image is switched with the Glue Striker image.

According to Bloons Monkey City, the Glue from Glue Gunners come from a plant called Sticky Sap. This plant has an ability that act the same as Glue Striker with Corrosive Glue on.

1/0 and 0/1 glue gunners look the same.

Tier 2 upgrades make the body of the glue gunner almost completely covered. At tier 3 the face gets covered.

There is a bug in BTD4 where corrosive glue pop ceramic shell in one hit. This has been fixed in BTD5.

Due to the fact that Regen Bloons take the same time to regen as Corrosive Glue takes to damage Bloons, having Regen Bloons hit with Corrosive Glue nullifies their ability.

To an extent. The corrosion is slightly faster than the regenerative ability of the bloons, so a yellow Regen can be popped with just Corrosive Glue and Stickier Glue. However, using this is extremely dangerous against Blacks, Whites, Zebras and Rainbow Regens, as they split into two, and then regenerate back one step before popping again. This quickly multiplies the number of Regen Bloons on the track.

This is because MOAB Class Bloons are immune to glue. If this immunity is removed, Glue Gunners will not target MOAB Class Bloons, but with Glue Splatter can glue them.

Sometimes, the bloon gets glued for a split-second before the game removes the glue.

In Bloons TD 6, each 5th tier upgrade has a different suit. In Path 1, the monkey wears a green hazmat suit with a gas mask connected with an oxygen tank meaning the fumes are very toxic. In Path 2, the monkey wears an orange mask with two windows for eyes. In Path 3, the monkey wears a black (sort of metallic) suit with a big square glass on his face.
